    I really want a li ning racket after they've been released in the UK, i want a good doubles racket now i've found a great singles racket.

    but ALLLLLLLLL i hear about on hear and elsewhere is the n90!!! seriously has anyone else bought another li ning racket apart from the n90?? wondering what the n33 and n50 were like to play with?

    please if anyone has used them share your experience, i have two days to decide what racket to get!!

    They are both really great rackets.. N50 is stiffer, and more demanding. N33 is alround easy to use. N77 is more dynamic flex for people who need a littte assist by shaft flex to generate power..

    But actually many doublesplayers also seem to like N70 which is slightly head heavy but not by much.

    Balance wise in between N50 and N90, but no as stiff as those two.

    I would say the best rackets apart from N90 and N90-II would be:
    1.N50 or N50-II
    2.N55
    3.N70

    played with the n50 II and own the n90... for doubles play, easily n50 recommended as its more swift in transition

    I have the N90, N90-II, N50-II and N70... If you don't want to buy the N90 series and is mainly a doubles player I would say go for the N50-II or N70, N50-II is a quicker racket than the N70 but I would say N70 packs more power than the N50-II...

    n50

    recently got the n50, i think its good for doubles.
    still prefer the arc10 since FOR ME it is more manueverable, more solid feel to it, slimmer profile in terms of racket head and shaft.
    i noticed the n50 to have shorter handle, thus it has a longer shaft compared to arc 10.
    i swung the n33 fleetingly since i like the colors better- looks more elegant. i found it even thicker ( should i rather say fatter) racket head profile . since it had a wider profile i just equated it to less manueverability so lost further interest in acquiring it.
    lots of people seem happy with li-ning. for me yonex is still better in terms of feel and quality.
    i would prefer ns9900 or arc10 for doubles vs the n50--- but remember again its just me ( a weekend warrior.)

    The N70 and N77 sounds good , If I am going to get a LI-NING racket they are my choice , I had a go with the N50 ,it is nice racket but just a bit stiff and slow in doubles

    You what ! I got an ARC 10 and that racket neither had better feel or quality or better than an N50 either in singles and doubles. ARC 10 is a good general racket but I expected more when I paid such a huge amount of money. I traded it with a NS9900 and that my friend is a very good racket.......(still not as good as my new Tantrum 200 )

    If your ARC-10 is more manouverable than N50 it is surely a fake :)

    Arc-10 3U has similar manouverablity to N70.. N50 is quicker (N77 being the quickest). If head-heavier means more manouverble for you, you are truly unique :p

    Yes, N50 is definitly quicker than the N70, so is the N50-II, I don't know the difference between N50 and N50-II since I only have the II

    I think both of those rackets are the least used o.o, N33 was made for Cai Yun, and N77 for Du Jing.

    But they are using N70 and N90II o_O

    disagree

    i dont buy fake rackets nor do i believe the licensed dealers here in the usa sell me fake ones.

    enlighten me master twobeer why arcsaber 10 is marketed as even balance while n50 is marketed as head heavy- which i happen to agree on. unique as i am i may not be the only person who disagrees with your comments.:)
